Originally released in 1998 on Independiente Records, the record was a Top 10 Album Of The Year in MOJO and Top 15 in Uncut magazines at the time.

This is the sole studio album from Burton-on-Trent based Sunhouse, Crazy On The Weekend captured the melodic beauty and gritty yet affecting soul that made the group so beloved despite only existing for a matter of years.

Working with producer John Reynolds (who also played drums on the original sessions and has remastered the album for this release). Sunhouse always recorded outside regular studios, creating Crazy On The Weekend in Reynolds' Notting Hill home which added a unique atmosphere to these recordings. Built around the band's warm acoustics and subtly impassioned vocals, gentle washes of strings, deep resonating organs and, on closing track Hard Sun, backing vocals from Sinéad O'Connor, added a golden glow to Sunhouse's already moving songs.

Late singer Gavin Clark would go on to work with UNKLE and form the band Clayhill, but Crazy On The Weekend represents one of his most fully formed artistic expressions, as Sunhouse created an album that, though acclaimed on release in 1998, has subsequently become something of an overlooked masterpiece.

Crazy On The Weekend remains a central tenant of this rare, candid yet magnetic talent’s artistic legacy and Rough Trade Records are honoured to be bringing this underrated yet truly affecting album back to vinyl. LP (Orange Vinyl)
